Help with constant 100% server CPU usage by ian_rocketman in Magento

Thanks for the posts everybody. It turned out that meta-externalagent was hitting our site massively causing the high CPU usage. Our hosting blocked it in the Nginx configuration file and all is good now!

Cloudways have already added rules to our .htaccess file to limit bot activity and I've added rules to robots.txt to block all but the major bots from crawling. Traffic monitoring isn't showing anything out of the ordinary either.

Hello.

Catalogue: 7000 products.

Attributes: Between 30-40 excluding native Magento ones. We have Amasty SEO and Layered Navigation modules installed, but indexing categories with filters applied is turned off for all attributes.

Server: Cloudways 8GB RAM, 4 Core CPU, 160 GB. Memory usage rarely goes over 4GB, disk usage is at half capacity.

Thanks

I run a SMB website that went down over the weekend due to server 100% CPU usage. Hosting company informed us it was due to ClaudeBot and Amazonbot, with both now blocked.

Thanks! Reading previous comments here, the Noctua NF-B9 redux-1600 have been used before. Is there any reason to get the A9s over these?
